#572: Change scoping of TmunuBase parameter to allow parameter checking in other thorns -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Reporter: filga@… | Owner: Type: defect | Status: review Priority: major | Milestone: Component: Other | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: -------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
Comment (by anonymous):
This would not be a very elegant solution as one ordinarily checks parameters in PARAMCHECK while SetStressEnergyState is not called until BASEGRID. In fact, were the parameter to be made steerable as well as restricted, the thorn in question could detect and rectify the problem all within PARAMCHECK, while post-BASEGRID the damage would be done.
I would now like to recommend also changing the parameter to steerable.
I would also point out that the proposed change will not break any running code, but would go a long way in making it possible to write thorns that are not so finnicky over parameters.
